Former Minister of Defence and Member of Parliament for Bimbilla, Dominic Nitiwul, has attributed voter apathy within the (NPP) to internal allegations of corruption.
Speaking in an interview on Asempa FM on February 11, 2025, Nitiwul suggested that accusations of theft against government appointees from within the party itself led to disillusionment among supporters.
He compared the situation to the opposition (NDC), which, according to him, maintained strong internal unity. "The opportunity that the NDC had was that they only had one candidate.
All those that wanted to contest Mahama were just having a dress rehearsal for future elections, so, the party was very united from the ground to the top," he said.
